Traveling to a great country such as Argentina that is cheap, safe and beautiful is a great thing, but there is something else that is wonderful about the huge South American, European-influenced country. There are a ton of adventure activities to enjoy while traveling the countryside.

Here are a few of them:

1. Milenka Snow Trips in Caviahue. This is a snowmobile outfit that takes you on beautiful tours around the ski resort. Great views are enjoyed so be sure to bring the camera.

2. Canyoning in the Arroyo de la Virgen located in Bariloche, Patagonia. There several areas to experience the adrenaline rush and beauty of canyoneering in Patagonia but this is an especially gorgeous place. There are different companies found in the center of town that offer guided trips and the necessary equipment.

3. River rafting the Rio Manso River located outside of Bariloche, Patagonia. This excursion takes you to emerald green waters outlined by lush forests through different classes of water. The trip finishes in Chile so the bonus of visiting another country is included.

4. Traveling by windcars on the sandy beaches of Rada Tilly, Patagonia. This high speed beach sailing is a fun, all natural adventure. Experienced drivers of the wind propelled cars assist you in experiencing the rush of flying along the ocean’s waters. The intense Patagonian winds make this an ideal place to experience the joys of traveling by windcars.

5. Paragliding. There are multiple places to experience the intense views that paragliding offers. San Rafael Mendoza is a great place to experience flying above the beautiful Valle Grande. Another company is located outside of Buenos Aires giving breathtaking views of the Pampa.

6. Racing the beaches with Quad Runners. To the north of Buenos Aires in the town of San Bernardo the beaches are a great place to enjoy the speed and fun that only motorized vehicles can provide. Their popular place to rent is the Moto Beach store located on the road paralleling the beach. They offer different sized bikes to accommodate the entire family.

7. La Piedra Recreation Center in Villa La Angostura, Patagonia. This ingenious outfit has included such activities as rappelling, rope swinging, quad running and rock climbing at one location.

8. Experiencing deep caverns inside the earth, located in Villa Carlos Paz in the Province of Cordoba. There are excursion companies that will guide you into the depths of the earth where you will discover strange formations and eerie rooms formed by water and erosion.
